Bondi refuses to answer questions about allegations Trump's border czar Tom Homan took $50K in cash in exchange for his promise to funnel government contracts to "businessmen" who turned out to be FBI agents in 2024. After Bondi became AG, the investigation was terminated.

New 25% tariffs on trucks taking effect on November 1 will hit NW Ohio hard. Our region’s suppliers, parts makers, and logistics workers depend on stable trade with our largest fair trading partner to the north, Canada. Trump's reckless tariffs risk Ohio jobs and raise costs for our families.
Trump Says US Tariffs on Heavy Truck Imports to Begin Nov. 1
President Donald Trump said 25% duties on medium- and heavy-duty trucks would begin Nov. 1, the latest expansion of his tariff regime aimed at protecting domestic industries.

Trump’s openly talking about invoking the Insurrection Act with zero insurrection in sight. He’s inventing chaos in Portland and Chicago, and even saying he’d use it if courts or local officials are ‘holding us up’.

Wild how he didn’t bother using it during the actual insurrection on January 6.

Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown.

There’s a 2019 law that guarantees it, but Trump is once again trying to break the law.

You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

This is devastating. 🧪
2. "But in the month I’ve been here, I think things have turned around pretty significantly"

That is also incorrect. Little has turned around in the last month at the NIH: the funding situation, both internally and externally, has only gotten worse. See total funding:

The Situation Room should not be a group chat.

We keep asking what people should do — people need to speak up.

Congress needs to demand answers. The guy who used to fire people on television needs to do that again and fire Pete Hegseth.
